Pipistrelle bat is a cross-stitch pattern of 28 × 25 stitches from the Moonlit Hedgerow album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 371 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 3031 Mocha Brown Vy Dk covers the most cells, 153 stitches (41% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 718 Plum, with 10 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.0 × 1.8 in (5.1 × 4.5 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (16 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
